I love the product I saw on YouTube called  kc868-h32b. This is near perfect because it has allot of digital IO and relays, it uses RS 485 so It could be used with HMI, and allot of other features that could be used for industrial application. I believe it is capable of temperature sensing with PT100 temperature sensors, but I believe it would benefit from Using type K thermocouple temperature sensing, as well as having more analog input and output, specifically 4-20mA for scaled control and transmission. This combined with a customized Arduino program written for the ESP32, could be a powerful industrial PLC tool

thanks for your suggestion. when we have a hardware resource list for the new PCB, we will post at here.

Hi,
I'm hosting a KC868-A4 to replace and monitor my home air system (double flux CMV) as the default automation wasn't doing what I wish.

I need to read 3 temperature sensors (ds18b20) that could be connected on the same 3 wires.
The temperature sensors are used to open or close a bypass.

The KCS firmware provided only allows to plug 1 sensor.
Is it possible from your team to update the KCS firmware to include multiple sensors on the same wire ?
It is totally possible on esp32.

Otherwise, my other option is to forget the KCS firmware and develop by myself everything through Arduino by embed the community librairies (wifi, mitt push, fan controls ...)

Thanks for your help,
Regards,
Mathieu

we will save your suggestion. why i not suggest use multi sensor with one GPIO, because the wire distance is shorter.
another way, you can connect 2pcs of analog temperature sensor with analog input ports by KC868-A4 board.

Thx.
It would be an embedded pcb and wire distance is < 80cm.
I’m waiting for my additional test sensors.
I’ll try with AInput as my overall need is 4 temp sensors + 1 pressure sensor.

now developing new KCS firmware update, will support to use i2c temperature & humidity sensor - SHT31 on PCB.

I received the Kincony AS yesterday and was very curious about the product. I found two reviews on YouTube and both mentioned the speaker being lose in its casing after shipping. I also got the product with its speaker not in its correct place. This needs to be fixed before I would order another one. For now I opened the case and soldered a lose threat back on. Glued the speaker in its position. Seems to work as expected now. Colors of the onboard led do not match up with Homeassistant controls. I changed the yaml to rgb_order: RGB and this did the trick.

Thank you for your feedback. We have also found this problem. We are currently in the second phase of production and will solve the problem of fixing this speaker.
